I was gifted a very special medal after my grandma passed away a couple of weeks ago and needed to get it reinforced since its a 60+ year old piece of jewelry and the ring where the necklace goes through was thinning.I looked all over San Diego to find the perfect place where theyll treat it with so much care since its such a big piece for me, its an heirloom.I talked to Wayne, brought him the medal and he was super honest and explained to me what he was going to do to it, he was clear about the risks and possible outcomes after treating the medal but assured me he will take care of it and Ill be happy.Something about his energy gave me the peace of mind that even if theres a risk for darkening he would do his absolute best to prevent it.He put a hook where the new necklace could pass through and honestly he did magic. I cant even describe what he did because it feels like magic.Well, what can I say? I cried when I saw the end result. He brought a 60+ year medal back to life!Thank you Wayne.

I went to BGS looking to repair my wife’s ring. I didn’t (still don’t) know anything about rings. Wayne was very patient and gave a lot of information. He went above and beyond on the repair and cleanup and delivered quicker than expected. My wife and I are very happy with the result.

I was looking for a place i could sell my moms family diamonds and after stopping at what seemed like every store in the county ,the owner Wanye was able to give me a price that i was really happy with and treated me with respect . His and his wives professionalism , knowledge, and friendliness sold me , and i will be going there for every single one of my jewelry needs from here on out.

My wedding ring needed some repairs to the setting holding the small diamonds and the large diamond was reset into a new setting. The jeweler went the extra mile to make the ring look beautiful for me. I am very satisfied with his work. It is more beautiful than the day I bought it new. I would definitely recommend this business. A+++

After a few unfortunate mistakes by my regular jeweler (a well known shop in RB), I found myself looking for another jeweler closer to home in escondido. I am very pleased to say that the reviews for BGS are wonderfully accurate in their 5 star praise. Maria at the counter was professional and kind. The jeweler who made my repairs (a lost stone in my wedding band and a couple of rings sized up to fit) did a flawless job and quickly at that. The prices were reasonable and they took some old, broken gold jewelry and applied that to my purchase price. I will take any future jewelry needs to this lovely, local, small business. Thank you Maria and co.

I was there today for the appraisal offer (ask about what it is). He told me I had gems in my heirloom rings I had never heard of before. His expertise helped to guide me as to what price I should ask for the jewelry I wish to resale. Bob was very helpful and I will gladly go back to BGS whenever there is a need for repair, redesign or any other of his services.Thanks Bob!

I was looking for an experienced jeweler to find a unique and non-traditional engagement ring. I wasn’t sure what that would be but I knew I didn’t want to be told what I need by.a chain jewelry store. Wayne spent time with me to talk about options and my vision. In the end he helped me find a ring that was perfect and even was the lowest cost option. He was so down to earth and low pressure. This shop is a gem unto itself. Will not consider another place for buying jewelry.

My family has been dealing with Wayne and his wife for years. Great people and always a pleasure to do business with them. They helped me through the process of matching the perfect stone and engagement band to propose to my fiancé (now wife). We even bought our wedding bands through them and we couldn’t be happier. We highly recommend!!

I spent a few days going to every mall jewelry store in Escondido, Carlsbad, Fashion Valley, and Mission Valley only to be up sold at every store and to be shown everything that I did not want. Since I don’t really wear jewelry I wanted something simple but despite that request I was shown rings with meteor rocks as part of it and some very flamboyant rings that even Liberace might have turned down. My simple request for a simple ring was ignored everywhere until I came in and spoke with Maria. She didn’t try to up-sell me with any moon rocks and explained the difference between the different metals and the reason for the difference in cost for the options they gave me. Save yourself the time and hassle of being sold a ring by someone reading the Information off a catalog and go to Wayne and Maria who didn’t have to ask a manager after each question I had regarding a ring I was interested in.Thanks again Maria.

Bobs Gem Shop is a tucked back in a little shopping center and you might drive right by it if you are not familiar with the location. This is a store is a true gem and you dont want to miss if you love beautiful eye candy! They have done repairs for me and I always feel like the service is honest, genuine with a quick turn around. Their diamonds are dreamy and I always have to see whats new but what often draws my attention equally are the cases with estate jewelry displayed. When I need a quick gift (did I say for myself?) , I can always find something really special.... a gorgeous sterling silver cuff with a moonstone on it was my last find. Their gold prices are always fair when you have some to cash out. I love doing business with someone that I can trust and who is in it for the long haul and wont be gone tomorrow!

I just needed a quick chain repair. She started writing up a ticket for $35 to 40. No way! Folks at Swap meet or Oceanside street fair will do for few bucks. Dont let these folks overcharge you!

I wish I had more stars to give. I am so impressed with this business. I brought 2 gold chains and a bracelet to be fixed. They repaired the chains and charged me less than they quoted because the job didnt require as much work as they initially thought it would. Who does that?? So impressed. They also restrung a pearl bracelet and made it look beautiful even though I was missing pearls and beads. I cant speak highly enough about BGS.

Wayne and Maria (the owners) went above and beyond to help me create an amazing engagement ring. They took the image in my head and found me an exceptional diamond and the perfect setting. I told them what I was looking for and cant believe they turned it into a reality. When you dont know much about jewelry or diamonds it can be a little intimidating going from retailer to relailer where people are just trying to make a quick sell. Maria and Wayne made sure me finding the perfect ring was the main priority whether it was from their shop or somewhere else. Thank you guys for making this absolutely stunning ring for me. I truly couldnt be happier!

They have taken care of all my jewelry for the last 20 years. The owner is awesome and goes out of his way to make sure Im happy. I recently had a 50 year old wedding band that used to be my fathers. 25 his 25 mine. crack from years of abuse bobs did a great job fixing it. But I was not 100% happy. So they used my gold and rebuilt my ring better than I could have ever dreamed. They did this to make sure I was happy with my ring. Happy is an understatement. Thank you

Wayne is the best. He took my custom order and made it right. He noticed things wrong witht the ring that I never would have noticed and made me let him fix it. He was very fair on the price and kept me informed of the progress during the entire process.If you want a fair, proffesional, top quality, courteous and personal jeweler, Bobs Gem and Jewelry is the place, and Wayne is your guy.
